I like the finish you get on your wood, how do you finish your handles?

I finish them using sandpaper, starting from 220 on drill disk and then by hand to 2000. Than I oil them using boiled linen seed oil or wax them using bee or carnauba wax - I prefer natural chemicals Oil changes color, it turns Ziricote to black, in this case I use wax - carnauba is the best.
There is very good site for self-knifemaking - www.brisa.fi they provides some basic tutorials. Thanks, Vassili. __________________ nozh2002 |
